Estariol Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 What are the pros and cons of bowls or specific contraptions for icing the smoke. The two main one on my mind are: Smoking-Hookah.com Or the Hookah-Shisha.com - (this ones for modern shisha's specifically) Does anyone have any experience with these two or other ice-chambers for where-ever they might fit on an egyptian? Does the Smoking-Hookah one become brittle and weak once in the freezer, and does the Hookah-shisha one rust? Debate away... p.s. administrator of the sites don't allow direct links to them, cuz i'd post the pics otherwise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ASUSEAN1 Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 pro- it looks interesting?con- it doesn't do anything.. smoke doesn't go through it long enough to cool down. Ice in base is a lot more effective Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kram Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 okie ice in base, but ice in base if u notice melts really fast. the hot smoke melts it, plus the temp outside plays a part.too much ice and it effects the draw.lets say the ice bucket below the tray doesn't do much. wat will? wat will keep the ice in the base longer?

Key Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 I was wondering the same exact thing. I am not sure if it is worth it to just buy one to test for results and such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShishaFred Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 You guys have Horchata Slush? Wow i'm impressed. We just have like...the usual extremely sweet fruit flavours. It doesn't get as hot here though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McDarragh Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 I have the 'ice torrent' from hookah-shisha which has the ice bucket mod as standard - i noticed you need to use a lot more heat to get the same amount of smoke which kind of null's the whole point for me. I find it much more enjoyable to ice the base or use no ice at all - and the ice bucket is said to rust if not cleaned and dried after every use (i wouldnt know cause i clean mine) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thadeus Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 You can also try putting your hookah in the freezer before you smoke. That always gives me some nice smokes, along with ice water in the base. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KillZedKill Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 You could just fill a small buckets with ice in in, and stick the base of your hookah in that, like a wine bottle! This could even cut down on dropping coals next to your pipe and burning your carpet lol. I've never tried this, just thought of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
